BSOD Randomly Last Night
Got a bsod randomly last night
|My System Specs
|10 Mar 2014
Looks like there isn't a mini dmp. I didn't actually see the blue screen so I guess that explains why. Hopefully my hardware is fine.
I did a reinstall of my nvida drivers so hopefully that will solve it.

Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview 64-bit
Yes, there is no minudump.
Follow it: Dump Files - Configure Windows to Create on BSOD
Go to Option Two, Point 2. Download the .reg file and merge it in registry by double clicking it.
Now wait for another BSOD. When it occurred, search the .dmp files manually in the default path: C:\Windows\Minidump or %SystemRoot%\Minidump. See if the crash dump is recorded or not (hopefully it will be recorded).Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

Terry Eagleton reckons that "there is no eminent British poet, playwright or novelist prepared to question the foundations of the western way of life." He goes on to demonstrate why Amis, Rushdie, Hare et les autres eminences grises don't fit this category - in the case of the first two, because they've become reactionaries and in the case of Hare, because he's become a tinkerer rather than a radical, the Claudio Ranieri of theatrical-political intervention.
It's a depressing analysis and one instinctively reacts against it. In the theatre, at least, surely we're in the midst of a period of unusually high political commitment? What about all this docudrama; what about the last few plays at the Court, what about the current regime at the Soho? Then, reading between the lines of Eagleton's article, one realises why nobody qualifies as a radical nowadays: it's in the detail of that phrase "question the foundations". In legal terms, today's writers get off on a technicality.
By "the foundations", you see, he means capitalism. As usual, cry the wags. So DH Lawrence qualifies for Eagleton's list of radicals because his work "denounced 'the base forcing of all human energy into a competition of mere acquisition'": i.e., he attacks capitalism from the individualist right rather than the collectivist left. Presumably because Eagleton likes Lawrence, he's able to pick up on the moments he's not just hammering on about sex and find the key moments when he's instead resenting people for wanting money rather than sex. (Just because this is a simplistic reading of Lawrence shouldn't be taken as a dismissal of his work. It's just a dismissal of the idea that he's any kind of radical.)
So no-one's questioning capitalism nowadays. This is really a variation on that old plaint, "the left lost its way after '89". And it's a load of cobblers. No-one's questioning capitalism using the old tools of Marxist dialectic, sure, but is that surprising given the drubbing that dialectic had taken by '89? Look at it this way: in 1989 a discredited and corrupt system fell and many millions of people were liberated as a result. Only at the symbolic level did this in truth have anything to do with left against right, but the symbolism, as so often, was far more powerful than the reality.
Since then the left's battles have been fought on a series of single issues; rather than challenging the system we've sought to mitigate its worst degredations. Taking on Big Pharma, the leading polluters or even PFIs all involve questioning whether the profit motive is the most suitable way of engineering human welfare: the difference is that the argument proceeds by example rather than by doctrine.
But we're not challenging the foundations, so we're not radical. Well, perhaps. But perhaps now is not the time for radicalism, but for small actions with big repercussions. Let the dots be joined gradually, rather than the whole damn thing being inked in by theorists and technocrats in advance of any attempts at action.
This may be symptomatic relief, rather than cure. Fine. You can't cure a guy who's in love with his disease. All you can do is mitigate the symptoms and gently point out their point of origin, until he's prepared to listen. That, my friends, is the sadly reduced role of the "radical" left in modern political discourse. We've the Soviets to blame for that: they had their chance and they handled it atrociously and unforgiveably. Like it or not, we have to live with their lunacy having hardened the right against good sense, with their defeat having accustomed the right to the taste of victory. This is not a time for us to be radical, angry and big. This is a time for us to be good, and right.
As regards the place of literature in all of this: perhaps literature also got pragmatic. Perhaps writers listened to the atrocious self-belief of the world-changers of the sixties and seventies and thought, I can get something done, but went for a more modest goal than the wholesale change of society. Perhaps we live in a time where grand narratives are viewed with too much suspicion to be useful tools for change and perhaps the true radicals are the people whose ideology is unswerving but whose tactics are eminently adaptable. If you're not winning at half-time, you have to make a change.

Annabelle and Olivier were great hosts and we would thoroughly recommend! :)
Beautifully renovated to a very high standard it was a pleasure to stay. Quite rural so having a vehicle is a must,not a lot around which was great for us but maybe an issue for families. Great base to explore the surrounding area and would highly recommend a visit .

Fred's reviews its options after releasing Q3 results
MEMPHIS, Tenn. Fred's may soon be on the sales block, Michael Hayes, the company's chief executive officer stated Thursday morning in announcing the company's third-quarter results. According to Hayes, Fred's has received multiple inquiries from qualified parties and the company has retained Merrill Lynch to review a range of strategic and financial alternatives.
In addition, Fred's has suspended its stock repurchase program, suggesting that a deal may be imminent.
"The inquiries that came in were from different types of players [meaning both strategic and financial]," Hayes told analysts during a conference call Thursday morning. "What triggered it, as you can understand, is our stock is trading around book value," Hayes said, even though the company has a strong balance sheet.
Fred's reported total sales of $419.9 million, a 3 percent increase for the third quarter ending Nov. 3. On a comparable store basis, sales increased 1.1 percent for the quarter versus a 3 percent increase in the year-earlier period.
"As announced earlier this month, we now have completed our refresher program, which involved a substantial revamping of our store look and merchandise across our chain," Hayes stated. "Obviously, a project of that scale caused some disruption to our store operations; however, we think this initiative will strengthen Fred's competitive position over the long term by making our stores easier to shop and more appealing to customers. Still, early indications from our holiday sales while strong in the new expansion departments, thus far show that consumers remain conservative in spending."
Fred's also reported a slow start to the flu season to date, citing three sources—internal trackings, the FAN report and the FluSTAR report. "All of those are very indicative" of a slower start to the season as compared to last year, commented Rick Chambers, Fred's executive vice president of pharmacy operations. "We saw our first spike around December of last year with the main spike coming in February, but we're still anticipating a month or two off before we start seeing any relevant flu activity."
The company reported a drop in its third-quarter sales mix in both health and beauty aids and pharmacy as compared to the year-ago period. The company's mix included an 8.2 percent of HBA sales, 8.4 percent last year, and a 33.9 percent pharmacy share, compared to 34 percent in last year's third quarter.
Fred's gross profit for the third quarter increased 5 percent to $124.9 million, representing a 40 basis point increase in gross margin to 29.7 percent, primarily reflecting the impact of increasing generic drug penetration in the pharmacy department, Fred's reported.
Fred's total annual sales for 2006 were $1.8 billion. According to Drug Store News, it is the 26th largest retail pharmacy operator in America, just ahead of Kinney Drugs and Kerr Drug.
Fred's, Inc. operates 708 discount general merchandise stores mainly in the southeastern United States, including 24 franchised Fred's stores.
FTC accepts A&P's proposed Pathmark acquisition
MONTVALE, N.J. The Federal Trade Commission has accepted a proposed consent agreement relating to A&P's acquisition of Pathmark, according to grocer A&P. In addition, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act waiting period has expired, permitting the parties to close the transaction.
A&P expects to complete the acquisition, which includes 140 Pathmark stores in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware, on or about Dec. 3. According to Drug Store News estimates, the combined company will have total pharmacy revenues of more than $700 million, making it roughly the 24th largest pharmacy retailer in America, behind Duane Reade.
The terms of the consent agreement require A&P to divest six stores located in New York within a short period following completion of the acquisition. A&P noted that it has entered agreements to sell all of the stores required to be divested, and those sales have been approved by the FTC.
Those six stores being sold under the consent agreement: four Waldbaum's stores, at 3251 Richmond Avenue South, 778 Manor Road, 4343 Amboy Road, and 1441 Richmond Avenue, and the Pathmark store at 2660 Hylan Boulevard, all on Staten Island, N.Y., to King Kullen Grocery Co.; and the Waldbaum's store at 999 Montauk Highway, Shirley, N.Y., to Stop & Shop Supermarket Cos.
The stores being divested represent combined annualized sales of approximately $149 million and EBITDA of approximately $6 million.
The consent agreement will be subject to a 30-day public comment period, after which the FTC may propose modifications before the consent order is made final. However, A&P is not required to delay closing of the acquisition for the comment period.
Kroger celebrates Daytona 500 50th anniversary with largest NASCAR promotion ever
CINCINNATI Kroger is hoping that their shoppers think NASCAR when they shop in one of its many stores.
Kroger and 50-plus brands are carrying what is being considered the largest promotion for NASCAR ever.
The brands, which include goods from General Mills, ConAgra, Kellogg and PepsiCo, will be sporting the Daytona 500 race logo in honor of the event's 50th anniversary.
Kroger is one of the largest grocers in the United States with 2,500 stores in 37 states.
The retail effort will run for seven months, according to reports.
From accessories to soft drinks, nearly every product category will be under the promotional umbrella via newspaper circulars and advertisements in-store and in the media.
Kroger will also roll out NASCAR displays and host appearances by drivers.
According to the ISC, the Daytona 500 generated 30 million viewers last year, it was sold out attendance-wise, and a 30-second spot during broadcasts cost $500,000. Corporate sponsors of the 50th anniversary race run the gamut from Holiday Inn to Gatorade.

Monday was Memorial Day, officially a solemn time of remembrance and unofficially a national barbeque day. But memories inform every day, and so too does the importance of remembrance.
Although we've passed the official day of memorial, I'd like to share some thoughts to carry forward on warm summer evenings as we sit comfortably beside the grill, lest we all too easily forget those we've lost.
Life is full of paradox, and we are at our best when we hold seemingly-opposite experiences in our embrace. This means we can welcome the summer season by hanging out near the sizzling grill and recall those who are with us only in memory.
Most importantly, as we watch the sparks rise from fire we can remember the fallen, for they too were transformed into something ethereal and bright.
We've been a nation at war for more than a decade, and we have a new generation of veterans facing a new range of consequences post-deployment. Whether or not we agree with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, we have an profound obligation to honor and support those who went there and many of the other conflict zones.
It seems that there are two distinct communities in the United States today. There are those whose lives are touched, directly, by service to the nation and those who benefit, indirectly, from such service. Although there are veterans in my family and veterans in my circle of friends, it wasn't until recently that I made the choice to participate in the community of support instead of passively accepting the gift of other's action. This my loss, personally, and my failure as a citizen.
Today, I grieve for the searing loss of the fallen and the burning ignorance of those who fail to recognize the value of service and sacrifice. I feel sick at heart when I hear people diminish members of the military as somehow tainted by their service, for shame, such disrespectful attitudes and actions are badly done indeed.
By all means, we must strive for peace and for a time in which the violence ceases. But we can and must do so respectfully, because in today's world, a volunteer army protects the freedom that enables civilians to foresee a day without war. And the ultimate price of our freedom is the loss of a soldier's life.
On Memorial Day, we honor the fallen, placing flowers at graves and memorials and lowering flags to half mast. But the best remembrance we can offer to those who died in service is to stand resolutely beside the living members of the armed forces, veterans and their families.
Standing with them means acknowledging their service and sacrifice.
Of course, there's a unique bond between those with combat experience and those who've never been there, and those who dread the appearance of somber uniformed officers at the door on a glorious sunny day. The rest of us can only try to imagine. Even if we have no direct connection to anyone who went to the front lines, we too can witness the impact of war and be mindful of the intense and heartbreaking toll it takes.
Those of us who haven't "gone there" carry the responsibility to "be here" with and for those who have. Our job is to be mindful and compassionate. We can create a space that acknowledges differences in experience along with similarity in humanity. We can be present with the loss of life that is acutely felt by every service member, past and present. We can have compassion for their pain, their families' pain and ours as a nation. We can and we must, because without that service (which is ours, as civilians, to give), we only diminish ourselves.
Monday was a national day of memory. Perhaps you participated in a community-based memorial, or perhaps you honored the day privately in your own heart. And, for those of you who forgot to remember, its never too late to stand by those who have fallen. Most of all, we can remain mindful that every day dawns in memorial for those who have lost someone dear.
There's nothing wrong with kicking back at the barbecue on Memorial Day; after all, burgers and hotdogs brand a wonderful all-American tradition. But remember, it's richer to welcome the season of warmth and plenty with recognition of those who time of celebration was cut short.

Karlie Kloss Was Called 'Too Fat ' & 'Too Skinny' By Casting Directors — Are Their Eyes OK?
There must be something wrong with their eyes! Karlie Kloss revealed that she was unbelievably called both 'too fat' and 'too skinny' by casting agents in one day. Read the crazy details here!
Karlie Kloss, 24 , is a gorgeous model with an amazing body but there have been some people who surprisingly thought otherwise. The beauty opened up about the struggles she's had with her body type while chasing a tough career. "I was called both too fat and too thin by a casting agent on the same day," she said during a conversation at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity at the Palaos convention center on June 19 reported by Page Six. Now THAT's insane! Luckily, she's now learned how to not care what others think and focus on her health and strength instead of her weight. "I don't want to please anyone but myself," she confidently stated. You go, girl! See some of the hottest pics of Karlie here!
After Karlie struck back at her body shaming critics during her appearance at the festival, she proved that she's not only beautiful, but smart too. The Taylor Swift squad member revealed in addition to modeling, she also loves computer science. "At my core, I am totally a nerd. I love understanding how things work," she said and added that although computer science may not be "the sexiest thing" she is "so passionate about it, and it is genuine." She's not stopping there! Karlie also has political aspirations and made headlines when she expressed possibly running for president in the future. President Kloss? We like the sound of that!
There's been many unfortunate stories like Karlie's in which the bodies of models are never considered good enough. However, we're happy to know the face of Swarovski has overcome her hardships to get where she is. There's nothing quite like a strong woman inside and out. Whether she's working out regularly to keep her body toned or strutting her stuff on the runway at BFF Taylor's concert, we'll always be cheering her on!
HollywoodLifers, what do you think about the casting directors criticisms of Karlie? Tell us now!

What is a GPS?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of 27 Earth-orbiting satellites. The U.S. military developed and implemented this satellite network as a military navigation system, but soon opened it up to everybody else.
Each of these 3,000- to 4,000-pound solar-powered satellites circles the globe at about 12,000 miles (19,300 km), making two complete rotations every day. The orbits are arranged so that at anytime, anywhere on Earth, there are at least four satellites "visible" in the sky. A GPS receiver locates four or more of these satellites, figures out the distance to each, and uses this information to deduce its own location.
They require an unobstructed view of the sky, so they are used only outdoors and their performance is sometimes affected within forested areas or near tall buildings. GPS operations depend on a very accurate time reference, which is provided by atomic clocks at the U.S. Naval Observatory.
Each GPS satellite transmits data that indicates its location and the current time. All GPS satellites synchronize operations so that these repeating signals are transmitted at the same instant. The distance to the GPS satellites can be determined by estimating the amount of time it takes for their signals to reach the receiver.
Why are GPS Navigation Devices important?

Quick Kills chronicles the desperate longing to belong as well as the effects of neglect, familial absence, and the nature of secrets. The young female narrator is seduced by an older man who convinces her that she is the perfect subject for his photographs. Meanwhile, the narrator's sister embarks on an equally precarious journey. Never clearly delineating the border between art and pornography, the narrator's escalating disquiet is evidence that lines have been crossed.
"Quick Kills is a chronicle of bewilderment sprung from the terrible want to be wanted, the paralyzing flux of allegiances that keeps us pinned where we ought not be. Girls go missing as readily as shoes in this darkly suggestive novel; nobody's paying much attention but the predators, who are everywhere and swift. The reader is left to navigate by images, flashes in the dark—a drawer stuffed with frogs, a spatter of blood, a child in an empty swimming pool. Lurie insists that we look, keep looking, make beauty from the ruin, and live."
—Noy Holland, author of Swim for the Little One First

Guest Post by Liana-Melissa Allen
Music is magic. It can put you into another world and inspire you to be creative. It can fill you with wonder and joy when you were once feeling sad or uninspired. Horse Valley has been largely influenced by music because all through my life I have marveled at musicals like Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music, and My Fair Lady. Every time I hear the songs I imagine my characters singing or dancing to it and often it motivates me to write a story.
I love to make musical cartoons involving my Horse Valley characters, where (like in Disney movies) I draw my characters singing the songs and I'll make some sort of story out of it. I also compose my own themes on the piano for Horse Valley, which I use in book trailers like the one I made for Donkey's Kite. When creating themes for my characters, I feel like I have to completely understand who my character is in order to make a theme about them. It's like a test to see how much I know my character, and if I have trouble with it, then maybe I need to take a little more time to know them better.
Listening to or playing music is like adding fuel to the fire. It can send your creative mind spinning into another world, and because of this I'll often make playlists and choose particular songs or pieces to listen to that capture the spirit of whatever world I'm writing about. I believe music is like magic because it helps bring life to characters and can transport you into their worlds. It truly is a powerful influence on the imagination.
My Book Review
Donkey's Kite is actually a sequel to The Three Little Horses and the Big Bully Donkey, and both are from A Horse Valley Adventure series. It is a short book illustrated by its author, Liana-Melissa Allen. I thought about incorporating the review of the first book into this post, but I really think The Three Little Horses deserves a separate post, so please watch out for it tomorrow! I strongly recommend reading the first book to get a better sense of continuity and to better understand the characters. Having said that, there's nothing stopping readers from reading Donkey's Kite as a standalone.
|This is the Kindle edition and the start of a wonderful story...
At the core of it, this is a story about friendship and lending a helping hand. In this second book, Jack, Max, and Lax together with their new-found best friend, Donkey, decide to go kite flying. Well, Donkey was a former bully and the three little horses were once his victims. So how did they become buddies? That is why, my dear friends, you need to read the first book.
In this story, we are introduced to a new character called Gusty. Gusty is a white goose and she has a big heart. She makes her appearance when Donkey is being picked on by other geese and rescues him from his situation. He finally understands how it feels like to be bullied and he does not like it at all. But why is Donkey being bullied by these geese? Why isn't he with his friends Jack, Max, and Lax? Gusty also helps Donkey with his kite and she is such a subject matter expert!
This is a fun read. I loved the illustrations and I'm sure young readers will appreciate and like them. I also liked the little blue bird that showed up on almost every illustration (do try to spot it in the two pictures I included above...). The book format is conducive for reading aloud too. Donkey's Kite is a pleasure to read and is a fun platform for discussion by adult readers with their young readers. Fantastic work, young Miss Allen!
Book Synopses: The three horses Jack, Max, Lax and their friend Donkey are back!
In Horse Valley, it's a perfect day to go kite flying. Jack, Max, Lax, and Donkey decide to get creative by putting together their own homemade kites. However, Donkey's kite doesn't work. No matter how hard he tries to get it to fly, it just keeps tumbling to the ground. How will poor Donkey get his kite to fly? A friendly goose named Gusty is delighted to help him out.
In this Horse Valley Adventure, Donkey learns not to give up when all seems hopeless. The friends all learn a lesson about helping others and true friendship.
About the Author: Liana-Melissa Allen is a young author and illustrator of children's books and books for youth. She has written, illustrated and published six books. Her most recent one is the colorfully illustrated children's book "Donkey's Kite", the second book of "A Horse Valley Adventure" series. The first was "The Three Little Horses and the Big Bully Donkey". The lovable cartoon characters, Max, Lax, Jack and Donkey makes them a favorite of first and second grade students. She is now working on her third book of "A Horse Valley Adventure".
The magical world of fantasy has inspired Liana's imagination since as long as she can remember. Part of this was fueled by her dad reading aloud to her every day when she was younger. As a result, reading is her primary passion along with music. These two passions feed her imagination into stories and drawings, which she joyously sketches out into storyboards for a potential book.
Liana-Melissa is also a dedicated classical/jazz pianist, and mostly enjoys older music, especially from the big band era and the 1940's, 50's and 60's. While playing the piano, her imagination often leads to a great amount of improvising. Frequently, Liana will improvise a theme for one of the stories she is writing. Capturing this improvised music became a priority, which ultimately resulted in theme music for "A Horse Valley Adventure". The "Horse Valley" theme will be used for a short animated video featuring her Horse Valley characters.
Liana-Melissa loves to hear from her young readers. Please visit her website at www.lmabooks.com for more information, and to contact her by email. Visit her on Facebook too.

The leader in network integration and installation since 1987
From our humble beginnings as a networking cable installation company, quality and customer service have been at the core of ICNS. Because of our unparalleled attention to detail and genuine personal interest in the success of our clients, we've grown to become a global pioneer in network technology through word of mouth from satisfied customers.
No matter the size of your business, we can provide you with network integration, installation and consulting products and services — all guaranteed to meet or exceed industry standards — and all guaranteed to minimize downtime.
Technology is impersonal, but your IT provider shouldn't be
Unlike our competition, we concentrate on the details that are important to you and are committed to the success of your business. We pride ourselves on being big enough to provide all the services and coverage areas of the larger communications companies. But we're also personal enough to ensure our services are perfectly customized to your exact needs.
With one call, we can create a complete network — from design, to installation, to support. Our global outreach means that whether you're near our Ohio headquarters… across the country… or across the world… we can meet all of your IT and networking needs.
ICNS is your best resource for network cabling, IT support, and technology consulting
"ICNS provides all Telephone as well as Ethernet devices and cabling installations to support Voice/Data Communications, Process Control and RFID for our 130,000 SQFT manufacturing facility in Medina, OH. I find their Workmanship, Project Management and Customer Care to be reasonably priced, of good quality and delivered on time. I anticipate a long mutually beneficial relationship with ICNS and wish them success in all their endeavors."
"Forest City contacted ICNS for assistance with a cabling issue at a remote property. It was a Friday evening, shortly after 5:00pm EST and the property with troubles was located in California, several time zones away. There was a severe issue with the T1 data circuit that the business depended on completely. Forest City called ICNS and provided them with the details of the situation and they were able to provide a technician on-site within the hour. Once on-site, the technicians were able to specifically identify the problem. The speedy response from ICNS was impressive and appreciated. It is reassuring to know that we (Forest City) can depend on ICNS for consistently great service, especially in times of emergencies."
"The Cuyahoga County Domestic Relations court has enjoyed a very successful working relationship with ICNS since 1998. We contracted with this company to install Cat5 cabling throughout this old building prior to our installation of a new computer system. The company worked quietly and without incident during court hours and when necessary, worked after normal business hours to complete the project. We have used ICNS and continue to utilize their services to the present time. I hope our court can continue this working relationship with this company."
"Just wanted to send you guys a "Thank you" note for applying confirmation during our migration for site 288 - Alabama Plant 21. It really was appreciated and offered your continued support for this difficult program."
"ICNS has been the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library's data line installer of choice for more years than I can count. Most recently, they performed all cabling for both data and telephones throughout the $15 million renovation of our Main Library. This work included cat 5 and fiber wiring as well as the installation of all patch panels and racks on three floors of two buildings. During the many months of this complex project, we found all ICNS' employees to be professional, knowledgeable and extremely easy to work with. Their work came in on estimate and, at the last minute, when we needed additional work done very quickly, they performed it exactly to our specifications and at a reasonable price, despite the overtime. I give my unqualified recommendation of ICNS to any organization needing data line and telecommunications equipment installation."
"I just wanted to let you know we are extremely pleased with the work and the services that ICNS recently performed for ASC. The cabling job and the move of the access control system, the door audio/visual system, and our IP cameras were done exactly to our requirements. When there were questions, we were always asked to make sure the work was being done correctly and how we wanted it. ICNS made our move so incredible easy. I wish all the vendors we work with were as reliable, diligent, and did the same quality of work as we received from ICNS. I recommend your company to everyone I can."

Companies and consumers are certain to plunge deeper into mobile computing in 2016, exposing themselves to a Pandora's box of unprecedented security and privacy risks.
Meanwhile, a profound tempering force—the rise of cybersecurity insurance—will gain significant traction.
That's the consensus of a group of security and privacy thought leaders interviewed by ThirdCertainty. Here is Lance Cottrell's assessment of how these intensifying developments will converge in the new year:
Converging solutions
To be sure, tech security vendors are hustling to give companies innovative technical solutions. Gartner research director Lawrence Pingree calculates global spending on security hardware and software will continue growing at a robust 9 percent a year clip, topping $99.2 billion by 2018.
A good chunk of that spending will go directly toward locking down mobile computing. A lot of work is being done, for instance, to create more robust online credentials, such as fingerprint readers and other biometrics, says Lance Cottrell, chief scientist of Ntrepid Corp.'s Passages security consulting arm.
However, Cottrell notes "there's a lot of inertia to overcome, a huge amount of infrastructure built around the common ways to do things." It could be another 10 to 20 years before secure means of identification are in place, he says. And that won't happen without creating other problems.
"The bad actors are not restricted to only attacking in one way—so if you make that path more difficult, they're going to move to the next easiest thing," Cottrell says.
This omnipresent, constantly shifting threat gives impetus to the insurance industry's efforts to bring to market affordable cyber liability policies. Indeed, organizations globally are on track to spend $7.5 billion on cyber insurance premiums by 2020, tripling the $2.5 billion spent in 2014, according to PricewaterhouseCoopers.
As technical solutions and insurance coverage converge, company decision-makers will have more and better options to implement risk mitigation strategies to fit the mobile computing landscape.
"Companies are looking to mitigate the risks by insuring … and insurance companies are looking at how to measure security in quantitative ways," Cottrell says, adding that this is driving a lot of new research.
Cottrell, for one, believes the insurance industry could "force companies to implement solutions that really work, rather than being compliance-based."

Jello Brain Mold Recipe for Halloween
Jello (known as Jelly in the UK) is quick and easy to rustle up for parties, dinners and events and many kids and adults like to eat it. There are lots of fun shaped molds that you can buy for occasions such as Halloween.
One of my favorite molds is this brain shaped one which I've used a number of times and in different color combinations. Learn this fun Jello brain mold recipe to use for your Halloween entertaining and parties.
You can quite easily make a solid color up in the mold. Depending on the size of the actual mold you buy, you'll normally need to make up 2-3 standard sized packets to fill the container. Plain colors look fine but by adding evaporated milk into the mix, you can turn your plain translucent Jello into something that looks more like real flesh. I managed to get this rather two-tone effect with mine which looked pretty cool.
Note: This post may contain affiliate links for which I can be compensated.
Ingredients and Materials Needed to Make the Jello Brain:
- 1 brain shaped gelatin mold
- 1 bowl that the mold will stand up in until the gelatin sets
- 2-3 packs of standard 6oz sized Jello packs (2-3 Jelly cube packs UK)
- Boiling water
- 1 small tin of evaporated milk 170g approx (optional)
- Vegetable oil or spray for inside of mold
How to Make a Creepy Jello Brain for Halloween: Recipe and Instructions
Step 1: Preparing Your Brain Mold
Step 2: Making Up a Blood Red Jello Mixture
I used raspberry with this example which turned to pink with the addition of some evaporated tinned milk.
Step 3: Making a Flesh Color Jello for the Brain
Step 4: Add More Jello if the Mold is Large
Step 5: Set the Gelatin
Step 6: How to Remove Jello from the Mold

Hey guys! Sorry that this is my first blog post in AAAGEEESS!
I was super busy in October working on Inktober pieces (you can see my inktober vlog where I also talk about this review here) and I've pretty much been trying to get my life in order recently – I've had a couple of life changes that I've had to work around and blogging has fallen by the wayside a little bit!
However, I will be endeavouring to post here more regularly, starting with this review of LUSH's 'Sleepy' body lotion!
Now I know I'm late to the party on this one, it went viral a while ago because everyone was saying how amazing it is and how it really does actually work, so I wanted to see for myself what it was like!
It's a gorgeous-smelling purple lotion which is made using three different types of lavender and people have claimed that it helps you sleep. At the time that I bought it, I was having a terrible time sleeping – not being able to fall asleep, waking up multiple times, and waking up feeling like I hadn't got any rest at all! When I went into LUSH, one of the employees told me that it helps her with her insomnia and having read other people's reviews praising its' soporific qualities I was really keen to give it a go!
It cost me £13.95 because I got the bigger size and I definitely don't regret spending the extra money on it! I put a small amount on my arms, chest and neck before I get into bed and honestly, it really does work for me! I fall asleep quicker and feel like I sleep better since using it. The smell might not be to everyone's taste because it's a very strong scent, but it's great for me because I adore the smell of lavender 🙂 it also moisturises really well and leaves your skin feeling super smooth.
All in all, I would definitely recommend giving this a go if you have trouble sleeping, or if you're looking for a moisturising night cream and you like the smell of lavender! LUSH products are great if you are looking to be more animal-friendly because of their no animal testing policy and their clearly labelled vegan products. Sleepy lotion is vegan, which is perfect for me as if you've read my blog you will know that I'm vegan and am trying to use as many cruelty-free and vegan products as possible 🙂
Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoyed the review and let me know if you have used this product or are planning to!

A complete archive of Pakistan's Education news releases since 2007
Varsity officials enjoy key posts 'illegally'
Lahore, Nov 29: The lethargic attitude of government officials, their
lukewarm response and lack of coordination regarding issues of immediate
attention have been a matter of concern for stakeholders over the
This not only exposes the so-called good governance but also
shows as to how the government remains unmoved and does not bother to
introduce reforms to benefit the masses.
The most recent example of official sluggishness and indifference is related to public sector universities of the province.
the first case, the academic circles are quite critical of top
officials of the Higher Education Department Punjab for delaying the
removal of dozens of officials of public varsities whose appointment
against key posts is being dubbed illegal in the wake of October 5
judgment of a division bench of the Lahore High Court (LHC).
division bench of the LHC had declared the appointment of Dr Shahid
Mehboob Rana as Acting Vice-Chancellor Government College University
(GCU) Faisalabad, by the governor Punjab as illegal because it was made
without seeking advice of the chief minister.
After the LHC judgment,
the Higher Education Department had sought advice from the Punjab Law
Department asking whether the department, after the court verdict, was
required to process the case regarding cancellation of all
orders/notifications issued by the governor without seeking the chief
ministerís advice.
The department had received the reply on October
14 from the Law Department according to which all such orders without
seeking advice of the CM were illegal.
It is pertinent to mention
here that since then, no action has been taken against the top officials
of different varsities, including a pro vice-chancellor (PVC) and deans
of various faculties, and they are still enjoying the coveted posts,
The department officials claim that the delay was
witnessed in collection of data from different varsities across the
province. Nevertheless, one wonders as to how the data collection
requires so much time in this era of computer technology. However, the
stakeholders term the same sheer sluggishness on part of departmentís
bosses was behind the delay as they could not initiate action despite
passage of over a month. They say the delay has been greatly irking
other eligible candidates who can be posted against these important
Similarly, the stakeholders are also critical of the Higher
Education Department for delaying the stopgap arrangements for the
University of Education (UoE) and Lahore College for Women University
(LCWU) following the expiry of tenure of vice-chancellors (VCs) of both
the varsities on November 20, 2010. It is also important to note here
that since then both the varsities have been functioning without VCs. As
per prevailing procedure, regular VCs are appointed through VC Search
Committee process while temporary arrangements are made under which an
official looks after the office of the VC.
The terms of four other
VCs will expire in the near future, including those of Government
College University Lahoreís Prof Dr Khalid Aftab (February 25, 2011),
Bahauddin Zakariya University (BZU) Multanís Dr Muhammad Zafarullah
(January 26, 2011) and University of Sargodhaís Prof Dr Muhammad Akram
Ch (February 11, 2011) and Fatima Jinnah Women University (FJWU)
Rawalpindiís Prof Dr Saeeda Asadullah Khan (March 11, 2011).According to
stakeholders, the department being well-informed should take up the
cases before expiry of term of a VC so that similar situation does not
surface in future and varsities do not suffer owing to absence of top
administrators. Academic circles are also demand the government cut
through the red tape and introduce reforms for transparent and quick
handling of the cases of public interest.

Greece and playing an important role in the development of various
sectors. He said practical steps would be taken for the promotion of
cooperation between Pakistan and Greece and exchange of delegations
between both countries was of great importance. He said he would welcome
a delegation from Punjab for enhancing economic and trade relations

KEMU FCPS programme lauded
Lahore: The Young Doctors Association (YDA) has pointed out that King
Edward Medical University (KEMU) has launched a merit based system of
inductions into FCPS residency programme twice an year and this would
not only uphold merit but would also ensure that top merited doctors
were not denied training slots in the institute just because they have
no political influence.
The association office-bearers including Dr
Rana Sohail, Dr Salman Kazmi, Dr Aurangzeb, Dr Aslam Rao, Dr Khuda Bux,
Dr Kamran, Dr Khalid ldrees and others in a press release here on Sunday
welcomed the decision of the King Edward Medical University (KEMU)
administration of accepting the demand of YDA. After this decision,
inductions to FCPS programme would be done in KEMU in January and July
just like it was done in other institutes and proper applications would
be collected, merit list would be displayed and then slots would be
given to candidates on merit.
Previously these slots were offered by professors without making any proper merit list and on the basis of "sifarish".
is worth mentioning that Children Hospital Lahore, Sheikh Zayed
Hospital Lahore, and Nishtar Hospital Multan are already following the
same system of merit based inductions to FCPS training programme, where
interviews are also conducted while other Medical Institutions have
failed to develop any merit based system of inductions in this regard.
has appealed to the Punjab Health Secretary Fawad Hassan Fawad to
direct all institutions to follow a merit based system of inductions
into Post Graduate training programmes across Punjab.
Teachers 'black day'
Lahore: Joint Action Committee (JAC) of teachers and students has announced observing
November 30 as a 'black day'.A press statement said rallies and protest
demonstrations would be organised at district level across the province
to protest against various anti-education policies including transfers

Board of Governors in selected government colleges of the province.
PU teacher cleared of harassment charges
Lahore: Muslim Town Police on Saturday submitted an investigation
report on the harassment charge on Punjab University's College of Earth
and Environmental Sciences Principal Prof Dr Iftikhar Hussain Baloch
declaring him innocent after which the court disposed of Baloch's
interim bail petition.
The police had booked Iftikhar Baloch in two
cases over allegations of sexually harassing and intimidating two female
staffers. Later, he was suspended by the Punjab University.
Saturday, the police submitted the report before Additional District and
Sessions Judge Mohsin Raza. The report said that on the date of alleged
incident, Baloch was not present in the City as he was busy helping out
flood affectees in the area of Multan. He was officially on leave and
his telephone record further assured his presence in the said area, the
report added, adding that there was not a single evidence available
against the accused thus he was innocent.
It is pertinent to mention that Mr Baloch had secured interim bail so that he could prove himself innocent.
Students urged to work on research projects
Lahore: Punjab University (PU) Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Mujahid Kamran
has urged the varsity graduates to undertake maximum research projects
for production and utilisation of new knowledge for long-term
socio-economic progress of the country.
He was addressing an annual
get-together of the alumni of the PU Institute of Social Studies, New
Campus, on Sunday. Institute's Director Prof Dr Muhammad Hafeez,
University of Gujrat's Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Muhammad Nizamuddin and
former faculty members also spoke at the function which was attended by a
large number of old students.
The PU VC said the major difference
between the technologically advanced and developing countries today was
their capacity to produce and apply new scientific knowledge to various
spheres of life. He said Pakistan could also achieve economic
superiority and high level of standards of living through conquering new
frontiers of knowledge and enlightenment.
He also emphasised the
varsity social scientists and experts to produce new researches for
resolving myriad of problems in country's social life to make their
research studies useful for the society and nation. He said our students
and scholars should minutely study the emerging developments on the
international horizon to understand the real motives behind them.
Kamran further said the Muslim countries suffered huge economic losses
and lost a phenomenal amount of 12 trillion dollars in the Middle East
wars in the past while huge profit was reaped by the US because they
resulted in flourishing of the American war industry. Now under the
cover of bogy of terrorism, the America has not only set up its military
bases in 32 countries but has also been able to enact new legislation
within the country under which it can indefinitely detain anybody
without granting him any right of appeal against his confinement.
said under this pretext, the USA had also established its bases in
Africa where there was no incidence of terrorism which, according to a
writer, amounted to a hammer looking for a nail.

Increase funds for education: VCs
Lahore: The vice-chancellors of public sector universities across the
country have unanimously resolved to demand the government keep higher
education a federal subject instead of giving it to provinces under the
18th Amendment.
They also demanded allocation of minimum four percent
of the GDP for education in the next budget, saying the government
should keep the education budget sacrosanct.
The demands were
presented in a press briefing after the VCs Committee Meeting which held
at the Punjab University (PU) Old Campus here on Saturday.
of Engineering & Technology (UET) Peshawar, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, VC
Engineer Syed Imtiaz Hussain Gilani, flanked by PU VC Prof Dr Mujahid
Kamran and Rector of the National Textile University (NTU) Faisalabad
Prof Dr Niaz Ahmad, briefed the media.
The vice-chancellors committee
meeting attended by around 40 VCs was presided over by Engr Imtiaz
Gilani who said that the VCs had resolved that the government must
allocate a minimum of four percent of GDP for education sector in the
next budget for achieving higher literacy rate and radically improving
the standard of education.
He said the VCs also believed that after
being giving to the provinces the standard of higher education could
fall while uniformity could also suffer.
ìWe believe that by doing so the federation as a whole could also suffer,î he said.
Gilani further said it had also been decided that from now onward, the
meetings of the VCs Committee would be held in varsities of different
provinces across the country instead at the HEC. It is pertinent to
mention here that earlier, the meeting used to be held at the HEC
Islamabad alone.
The VCs committee also appreciated the federal
government for releasing funds for immediate requirements of varsities
in their difficult financial conditions.
The meeting resolved that
the higher education must remain a federal subject while a well
functioning control body was needed to develop, guide and steer higher
education. He said the vice-chancellors had urged the HEC to continue
its current role and its independence must be continuously protected.
meeting also adopted a slogan 'Four to educationóroad to salvation' to
impress upon the ruling leadership that salvation of the country was in
allocation of four percent of the GDP to education sector.
The vice
chancellor of UET Peshawar while apprising the newsmen of major
decisions of the Vice-Chancellors' Committee meeting, observed that the
media should also endeavor to raise awareness in the public for
prevailing upon their elected representatives to earmark at least four
percent of GDP for promotion and development of education for rapid
socio-economic development of the country.
Engr Gilani said that the
universities were autonomous institutions, adding the decision about
five or six working days per week should be taken by statutory bodies of
the respective varsities only.
To a question, PU VC Dr Mujahid
Kamran said that besides prime minister's son, MPA Abdul Qadir Gilani,
the degrees of around 12 more parliamentarians were yet to be verified
by the university. He said the delay in verification of degrees was
witnessed owing to the belated submission of required documents by the
PU Controller of Examination Prof Dr Zahid Kareem,
who was also present on the occasion, informed the media that the
varsity had received a total of 377 degrees of MPs for verification,
adding that around a dozen degrees were yet to be verified.
He also
said the delay was witnessed as the varsity was facing problems in
receiving required documents from the parliamentarians. He, however,
claimed the task of verification would be completed soon as the PU had
received required documents from the MPs. Answering yet another a
question about the latest position of Prof Dr Iftikhar Hussain Baloch's
alleged case of sexual harassment, Dr Kamran remarked that the matter
was sub-judice and was currently being investigated by law enforcement
agencies that's why he could not divulge any information as the PU
fact-finding committee was also holding a probe into the charges leveled
by the aggrieved party.
While replying to another question, Dr
Kamran said that against the total recurring grant amounting to Rs 29
billion and development grant of Rs 15.65 billion needed by all the
public sector universities during the ongoing fiscal year, the federal
government had so far released Rs 11.6 billion and Rs 6.55 billion
It is pertinent to mention here that University of
Education and Lahore College for Women University (LCWU) did not attend
the meeting as presently both the varsities are working without VCs
since tenure of both the VCs had expired on Nov 20, 2010.

ZDNet Asia has a story on how the IBM social business strategy relates to the existing business around Lotus Notes and Domino. Quotes included from Forrester's Michael Barnes and Constellation's Alan Lepofsky (who I coincidentally had dinner with last night...).
But the best quote of the story came from IBM Asian sales leader Christopher Blake, emphasis mine:
Asked if rebranding Lotus Notes with a new name could help boost demand, Blake replied: "Calling Lotus Notes legacy simply because it has been around for more than three decades is akin to referring to IBM in the same way because it has been around for over 100 years.Link: ZDNet Asia: IBM's social push indirectly benefits Lotus Notes >
"Like IBM the company, Lotus Notes has been constantly evolving through this period to best address the requirements of the time."
Blake emphasized there are no plans to rebrand what is "effectively a very well-known and respected global brand".

London needs to find new ways to tackle issues caused by its "essential" freight movements, was the message from deputy mayor of London for transport Val Shawcross as she opened the Freight in the City Expo at Alexandra Palace this morning.
Speaking at her first freight industry event in her role, Shawcross told delegates that while the mayor's office recognised that some of its new policies would be challenging for operators, "we all need to do things differently in order to cope with the growing demands of the roads, and to continue to ensure London gets the clean and safe deliveries that it needs".
Shawcross outlined plans to move more freight by rail and river, and said she wanted to speak to operators about retiming deliveries to outside of peak hours where possible, as well as working with the industry to achieve more consolidation of freight in London.
She also highlighted air pollution as one of the mayor's "biggest challenges" and priorities, and that air quality "isn't just a London problem. It is a national problem".
Shawcross said that 79% of Londoners had supported mayor Sadiq Khan's move to bring forward the beginning of London's ULEZ, and that 71% supported the decision to increase the size of the zone to cover all of Greater London.
Shawcross added: "I want to make it really clear we understand that freight is absolutely, absolutely central to sustaining London's global competitiveness.
"Part of my job has got to be working out how we can ensure that freight is embedded in how we think about London's growth into the future, and how we do it in a modern way.
"I look forward to working with the industry in the years ahead to ensure deliveries are made in the most efficient way, in the safest and cleanest vehicles."

Do you ever meet genuinely kind people and walk away feeling inspired, uplifted and motivated? That's how I felt after having coffee with local photographer, toddler mom, and entrepreneur Nicole Marcellus. We talked about her business Nicole Marcellus Photography, her aspirations and recent act of kindness that got me interested in her work. Photographers are everywhere. But the story behind this newly established creative artist in the Tampa Bay area is different. It's one of courage and determination to build a business (and its growing fast!). With a desire to help others through her gift of photography.
By no means are professional photos a necessity. Since getting engaged, I've made it a regular occurrence to have a professional capture life's special moments over the years. From newborn, annual family pics and the occasional holiday mini session– most of all I love seeing the final pictures. The anticipation is high and first look is exhilarating! Professional pictures aren't always affordable, so when I saw Nicole's post I was completely blown away by her generosity and compassion.
Kindness Behind the Lens
The post was titled "Kindness Matters". I intently read on to learn that this kindness event would be an annual endeavor that gives photo sessions to families for whatever they can afford. "The price for this event will be set by you, not me… pay whatever you can." Within hours of posting Nicole received an overwhelming response. Messages from her clients acknowledging this gesture of kindness and stories from families wanting to take Nicole up on her offer. As you can imagine, there are families of all walks throughout the Tampa Bay area. A few of them are getting the unexpected chance to have this thoughtful local photographer capture their family through pictures.
Worldly Inspiration
She goes on to share that Netflix series, The Kindness Diaries, (the same series I too had binged watched recently) inspired her to create this event. You're missing out if you haven't caught an episode yet. And better yet, it's for the whole family. The 13-episode series follows one man around the world, literally, who travels with no money, food or gas. He relies on the kindness of strangers to fill his gas, give him food and provide a warm place to stay. The tales of his adventures are amazing. Each episode I was overwhelmed by the people he encountered and generosity shown to a complete stranger.
But showing true kindness isn't new to Nicole. She has worked with local organization Children's Board Heart Gallery of Tampa Bay. Her endeavor to help families through photography was just another way of giving back to the community that's given her so much.
Paying it Forward Locally
Nicole hopes that her gesture of kindness will inspire her clients to keep acts of kindness moving forward. She also hopes that other business owners will take note and give back locally where it counts. In a world with so much negativity, this very simple message of kindness inspired by a Netflix series doesn't require a lot of money or time. Therefore by definition being kind is being helpful and that is something that can happen anywhere, anytime.
